Imagine, if all undocumented immigrants apply for TPS, the next president will possess a database of all undocumented immigrants including name/age/location etc. If no congressional action has taken place and the next president decides to reverse TPS, ICE will then have the intelligence to go after all immigrants in this country.

The above scenario is very similar to how the Nazi identified all Jews and coerced the Jews into concentration camp. It's scary to me when I think about that
